Sugarcoated Sting

作曲：Garth Richard Dahdah

作词：Garth Richard Dahdah

Words like daggers sharp and keen

Wrapped in smiles they're hard to see

You say it's just a joke but I'm not laughing

Your sugar coated thorns keep scratching

I'm not your punching bag not your clown

Time to turn this ship around

Don't be so mean

Oh can't you see your words are hurting me

Don't be so mean

It's not okay to push me down this way

Don't be so mean

Playgrounds grow to office floors

But bullies still knock on our doors

You think you're clever oh so witty

But your jokes just leave me feeling gritty

I'm not your stepping stone not your toy

Time to end this ploy

Don't be so mean

Oh can't you see your words are hurting me

Don't be so mean

It's not okay to push me down this way

Don't be so mean

Don't be so mean

In a world that's tough enough

Why add to all the rough oh oh oh

A little kindness goes so far

To heal the deepest scar

Don't be so mean

Oh can't you see your words are hurting me

Don't be so mean

It's not okay to push me down this way

Don't be so mean

In a world that's tough enough

Why hide to all the rough

A little kindness goes so far

To heal the deepest scar

Don't be so mean

Don't be so mean

Let's break this chain of causing needless pain

Don't be so mean

It's time to start

To open up your heart

Don't be so mean

Don't be so mean

Sugarcoated buns don't make them clean

Don't be so mean

Sugar coated thorns don't make them clean
